Are you looking for a smaller, fun loving, active yet snuggling pup? Mario is your guy!

Mario is a 6 month old, mixed breed puppy that is house trained, knows his basic commands, and only around 30 lbs. He does well with other dogs, in fact he loves other dogs. He has met many children and done great with all of them. Mario has been working with a trainer and his foster family to socialize around town and learn about the world outside his foster home.

If you are looking for a puppy but don't want to start from scratch, Mario is your boy!

Adoption fee is sponsored on our golden eyed beautiful girl! Cloudy recently celebrated her first birthday with her foster family and has been in our care for 9 months and 16 days.

Once a shy observer, Cloudy has really come into her own! Once comfortable she greets you with leg rubs and happy purrs, showing just how much she loves gentle attention. While she still has an independent streak and enjoys her quiet moments, she’s also playful and curious—especially when toys or hair ties are involved. Cloudy would thrive in a calm, loving home that appreciates her sweet, mellow charm and lets her shine at her own pace.
She is in a foster home with other cats and a animal respectful kid.

Adoption fee is $0.00 because it has been sponsored and which includes spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines/cares, and microchip. Born approx May 2025
